Blumat water supply hose 8 mm roll 100 meter

One hundred metres is the largest roll Blumat supplies. Nothing longer fits on a single reel, so anyone needing more joins rolls together. That is fine, but it is the moment to think about the installation's capacity rather than about metres.

The real limit is dripper count

A single continuous supply line serves roughly 250 Tropf-Blumat drippers. Fit a branch directly after the pressure reducer and that doubles to around 500, split across two runs of about 60 metres each. If you are hitting that ceiling, more hose does not help you: a second branch does.

Where the water level has to sit

Working from a tank rather than a tap, the water level must stand above the sensors: half a metre minimum, a metre preferably, and no more than fourteen. On an installation this size that height decides whether the furthest dripper still works.

Technical Specifications:

• Outer diameter: 8 mm
• Roll length: 100 metres, the maximum roll size
• Colour: black, light-tight
• Capacity per run: around 250 drippers
• With a branch: around 500 drippers across two runs

Frequently asked questions

Can I join two rolls? Yes, with an 8 mm connector. Mind the dripper count per branch.

How high must my tank stand? Water level at least half a metre above the sensors, better a metre.

Does it work off a tap? Yes, through the pressure reducer.
